Abstract:
      In this paper, we study a delayed Michaelis-Menten Type ratio-dependent predator-prey model with prey harvesting. By considering the characteristic equation associated with the nonhyperbolic equilibrium, the critical value of the parameters for the Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation is obtained. The conditions for the characteristic equation having negative real parts are discussed. Using the normal form theory of Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation for retarded functional differential equations, the corresponding normal form restricted to the associated two-dimensional center manifold is calculated and the versal unfolding is considered. The parameter conditions for saddle-node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation and homoclinic bifurcation are obtained. Numerical simulations are given to support the analytical results.
